RE: easy question
My old ANSI Y14.1-1980 only appears to reference Y14.2M-1979.
My Y14.5M-1994 does reference Y14.1.
ASME Y14.100 - the top level drawing spec - references both.
What is Engineering anyway: FAQ1088-1484: In layman terms, what is "engineering"?

The next question would be: To what "extent" is Y14.5 "specified herein"?

If you want to be more literal regarding "specified herein", then note that Y14.1M-2005 only directly mentions Y14.5M in one other place:
And the mentioned Fig 13 shows an example of a tolerance block that includes:
But it sounds to me that you already have Y14.5-2009 (or the previous Y14.5M-1994), so the better question would be to what extend Y14.5 specifies Y14.1M. Checking, ASME Y14.5-2009, I could only find two explicit references Y14.1/Y14.1M. The first is in its list of cited refernces (at 1.2.1), and the second is:
So if you're trying to get authorization to purchase Y14.1M, then you should first look and see what your company drafting standard states. Does it specify Y14.100 as the overarching standard? If yes, does it explicitly exclude Y14.1M? Because if not, then your standard implied that you follow Y14.1M for metric sheet sizes, so how can you follow your own drafting standard if you do not have copies of the applicable standards that it invokes?
And if your company drafting standard does not specify Y14.100, then does it do an adequate job of specifying the metric sheet sizes and formats that you do use?
